Study Design Highlights
A subsample of respondents from the 1988 ANES Pre-Post Study was selected for telephone interviews in two waves. The sample (1988 Pre- and Post- election respondents with telephones) was stratified on level of political information. The sampling fraction for each stratum was proportional to predicted response rate. Wave I (July 6 to August 1) encompassed 614 interviews, and Wave II (September 6 to October 6) obtained 494 reinterviews. Each wave used four questionnaires, Forms A through D.
